Job Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Master Framer to lead and oversee complex construction projects with precision and expertise. As a Master Framer, you will be responsible for managing all phases of construction, ensuring that projects are completed safely, efficiently, and to the highest quality standards.

Responsibilities

Roof Systems: Hand-cutting complex rafters (stick framing) rather than just relying on pre-fab trusses.
Load-Bearing Headers: Sizing and installing LVLs (Laminated Veneer Lumber) and steel flitch plates to support massive open-concept spans.
Shear Wall Installation: Ensuring the building meets seismic or wind-load requirements by overseeing specific nailing patterns and hardware like hold-downs.
Material Management: Estimating "take-offs" (lumber lists) to minimize waste and ensure the right grade of wood is used for the right application.
Mentorship: Teaching apprentice framers how to "read" wood (crowning studs) and safe tool operation.
The "Punch List" Audit: Walking the frame before the building inspector arrives to check for missing fire-blocking, improper nailing, or plate alignment.

Join us as a Master Framer where your expertise will shape impressive structures while fostering a safe and productive work environment. We value craftsmanship that combines skill with passion.
